  Naw, people get called tankies for pretending the USSR/China/DPRK were perfect and did no wrong.

  Your comment translated to the right would be “People will call you a nazi for saying you think we should have borders.”

  Nobody but the absolutely deranged stretches that far, but people who are that extreme do like to pretend that their entire half of the political spectrum is labeled equally extreme; strength in unity by inventing enemies, I guess.

    How many bombs has China dropped in the last 50 years? There’s a reason so many people prefer China over America.

      I never said America was free of problems.

      That’s the issue with people like you; you see zero nuance. Any criticism of any (pseudo-)socialist group must be met with Whataboutism or other bad faith arguments.

      so many people prefer China over America.

      (citation needed)

      also, yeah, bombs are one thing, and i see your argument there.

      however, what moves people is largely the economic situation. people get dissatisfied with the US today because incomes are declining for the masses.

      I sure as heck don’t prefer China. America and China are both awful.

      I think you’ve been drinking too much Chinese gutter oil.

        I think you’ve been mainlining American propaganda for your entire life. How many illegal wars has America started in the last 50 years? What about China?
